Thanks for the replies! I am intending to do everything I can get my mitts to, these are the sort of bits that I'm looking to start with tho (you can just about make out a tiny bit I did yesterday peeking out from under the engine cover):
I'll grab a wire brush and take a trip to the local motor factors for some cutting compound tomorrow morning as I have the day off to tinker, PEEK sounds interesting I'll try anything once tho so will give it a shot
Time isn't an issue, happy to do it bit by bit as I bought the car to keep it untill it dies, tho I suspect by the time I'm done, I'll have to start all over again
Wazzo - thats impressively shiney! Might have to re-think painting the plenum now, do you think a throttle body is do-able?
